I feel sorry for this. I thought mine got warranty it should be the same to the rest as long it's from Sony Malaysia.

I test 4 model XBA-1/2/3/4 at Sony Mid Valley.

I don't why, I not really like all the model. The sound still not up to my expectation.

Maybe cos I prefer full size cans than IEM.

Anyone interested in buying an XBA-3? Won one from a contest but its not the one i want so i'm selling it to fund the one i want

BTW for those that were discussing the warranty earlier, I've talked to the Sony Marketing people while picking up my set

Warranty (1 year) is given only for those items above RM300 in price. So XBA's 2-4 will have it but XBA1 wont:(

The XBA series are really good for the money.

The XBA-1s BA driver is quite decent in covering alot of the frequencies, and the XBA-2 is a breath of fresh air in the dual BA world thats now filled with TWFK drivers that are rather dry and bass-shy.

The XBA-4s I've used for awhile and sold it. Top end stuff. Very Ultrasone-like sound. Big powerful bass with stoic mids/vocals and sparkly, metallic tinged highs. Good for EDM music, or just about any other genres. Just.. yeah.. very big housing. The XBA-4SL has an annoying J cord which can be annoying. The iP version has the normal Y cords.

Also, the XBA series seems to have dropped its price, with Amazon US selling them for 220USD brand new. Which is what? 700ringgit?? MADNESS

Will be using it for daily commuting to work and sleep...

Bass department surely wont suit those who are MegaBass fans....but detail wise, my gawd!! rclxm9.gif

It was either MDR-310 or the XBA-1...but in the end went for the XBA...

I just called Sony and they told me that there is no warranty for my newly purchase XBA-S65. When I made the purchase in pavilion I was told that it comes with a one year warranty, and need to register the warranty through Sony website. Kinda feel like I got cheated.

As for other models, I'm not too sure.
So for you guys who wanted to get these iems, better double check again with Sony.

Yap...my new purchase also no warranty...Sony must have big cojones and confident of their product... sweat.gif


QUOTE(cyloh @ Apr 4 2012, 06:36 PM)
If I'm not mistaken there is this pinkish sticker on the box with something holographic. That should be the
serial for registration?

Sony earphones should have 1 year warranty and when you sign up online I think they add another 3 months to it?

hmm.gif

nope..that is authenticity numbers which can be verified if u sms the number to Sony...

QUOTE(r28 @ Apr 4 2012, 08:08 PM)
Certainly there's a misunderstanding here. As long you buy from local authorised dealer you have 1 year warranty + additional 3 months if you registered online.

About the online registration I had not register my xba-4 yet, so I also had no idea which is the serial no.

Nope, no misunderstanding....it does not have any warranty whatsoever, no 7-days 1-1 no nothing...only Bluetooh and Noise Cancelling headphone got warranty....I suspect due to electronics reason, but earphone is passive equipment so no warranty...
